Tesla can surge as high as $1,500 on soaring China demand and 'game-changing' battery announcements, Wedbush says
As Tesla's rapid expansion in China drove much of the analyst's present-day target, Ives pointed to the company's upcoming "Battery Day" as the next catalyst to push shares higher. The event is slated to reveal new "game-changing" battery technologies, including a cell that could last for one million miles.
The announcement could also reduce battery production costs closer to the key $100-per-kilowatt-hour level. Reaching the threshold would "give Tesla much more financial flexibility around pricing its current and future EV models" in line with gas-powered rivals, Ives added.Wedbush maintains a "neutral" rating on the electric-car company. Tesla traded at $1,003.09 per share as of 9:42 a.m. ET Wednesday, up 140% year-to-date.
